Some Things As They Were

It is said we were learning from life before we learned how to crawl
Though what applies to some does not apply to all
And though we learn as we live as the wise one does say
Not everyone does learn from life every day
Those deemed to be elite some only can admire
And of singing their praises never seem to tire
The highly paid entertainers and the sporting stars
And the people who drive in fast expensive cars
The heroes and heroines to many not abundant in knowledge, wisdom or insight
And surely not among the brightest of the bright
But without the impressionable masses it seems true for to say
That we would not have elites in the Human World of today
Yet many of those who are of a great benefit to humanity are strangers to most by name
Some things as they were over time stay the same.
